Det har länge varit svårt att få tag på Ur-Diablo, som hittills bara existerat, lagligt, i fysisk form. Men nu blir det ändring på det. En originalversion med fungerande battle.net-stöd och en version med uppskalad upplösning (finjusterad för moderna datorer) är nu släppt digitalt, via GOG, Good old games.

Blizzard släppte Diablo 1997, och även om det hamnat lite i skuggan av lillebror Diablo II, var det startskottet på inte bara en genre utan också många gamerkarriärer. Tyvärr säger Blizzard att bara den engelska versionen kommer att tillgängligöras. Den svenska översättningen får vi alltså även vidare ta del av på Youtube.
